BlackRock leads $25 million investment in Atlas Invest in push to modernise real estate lending

Shared 21 January, 2026

Atlas Invest, a technology-driven lender focused on commercial real estate, has raised $25 million in funding led by BlackRock.

The funding will allow Atlas to expand its bridge-lending platform, which originates senior loans backed by commercial real estate and relies heavily on proprietary artificial intelligence to source, underwrite, and monitor deals. The company positions its technology as a response to what it describes as the structural limits of traditional due diligence in private real estate credit, processes that are often slow, expensive, and based on snapshots rather than continuous oversight.

According to Atlas, its platform conducts institutional-grade due diligence at regular intervals rather than only at origination, drawing on a wide range of data about both developers and assets and updating risk assessments over time. The company argues that this approach offers investors greater visibility into loan performance and emerging risks, while enabling it to manage portfolios with a level of consistency typically associated with much larger institutions.
 
“The market is shifting,” said Nir Peled, Atlas’s CRO and co-founder. Investors, he said, are increasingly demanding strategies that combine security, predictable returns, and professional oversight. Atlas, he added, was built to deliver institutional-grade underwriting and monitoring “at software speed,” pairing automation with a conservative credit framework.
